    Hey everyone...

    I have been addicted to porn, masturbation, and sex for years. I just turned 24 and began compulsively masturbating at age 10. Things have progressively gotten worse, in the frequency of porn usage, frequency of orgasm, intensity of objectification (discovering new and "heavier" fetishes), and negative effects on sexual performance. From all the years of doing this, I have developed severe premature ejaculation on top of everything.

    I am looking for a way to get away from these patterns. I currently cannot go one day without giving in to the cravings, despite many "commitments" to stop. I need to do something drastic. I am not sure if this will help with the premature ejaculation (I imagine it can't hurt and I'm down to try anything at this point), but I want to at least address the sex/porn addiction through NoFap.

    Here's to it. Thanks for the support.

  2. Hey @Lampsink ,

    I'm just a normal ordinary member. No moderator super powers and no special insite. I share my ESH (Experience, Strength and Hope) of what works for me.

    Just another warm welcome and a heart felt hello. This community has helped me so much.

    What worked for me was "working" it. It took hard work for me to complete a hard reboot (No pmo) for 120 days, then move into a Sex Positive mode.

    First, reading the literature published by NoFap itself along with reading journals.

    Then, doing the work. Writing in my journal and replying to introductions and other's journals.

    Finally, but not least, getting involved with the fellowship. I found it on the forums, but also in people's profiles. The forums tend to be longer posts, where the profiles tend to be more "conversational".

    That is what has worked for me. I like to remind myself that this community was here waiting for me with the lights on when I arrived. Now, I have to do my best to be there when someone comes to the community.
